Conecta. Desde 1995

Coordinació: Enric Novella, Institut Interuniversitari López Piñero, Universitat de València Per sorprenent que resulte en uns temps de furor numèric, afanys taxonomistes i intensa fascinació cultural per la neurociència, en els darrers anys assistim a una important revitalització de la reflexió filosòfica en l'àmbit de la psiquiatria i la psicopatologia. Sense dubte, el principal motiu d'aquest fenomen ha de veure's en la persistent inestabilitat i en les insuficiències constitutives d'unes elaboracions discursives i unes pràctiques assistencials que, en opinió d'un contingent cada vegada més gran de professionals, defugen completament les dificultats –o, gairebé es podria dir, la impossibilitat– que planteja l'estudi de la subjectivitat amb els mètodes i els pressupostos de la ciència natural i no fan justícia, per tant, a la complexa realitat fenomenològica i psicosocial dels trastorns mentals. En aquest sentit, hi ha un ampli consens en assenyalar que els di...

Desde hace tiempo, la Red Universitaria Española de Historia Ambiental (RUEDHA), dentro del Grupo HUM 952 STAND, viene desarrollando encuentros bianuales con el fin de promover un diálogo continuado entre investigadores del contexto de la Península Ibérica al respecto de la agenda de trabajo de la Historia Ambiental. Tras el último encuentro en Granada en 2022, volvemos a convocar a personas investigadoras que desde distintas áreas y campos están interesadas en el estudio de la relación que las sociedades humanas y la naturaleza han tenido a lo largo de la Historia. Buscamos con ello continuar con la agenda de trabajo ya existente, pero abrir el espacio a la colaboración con nuevos grupos y temas de investigación emergentes, por lo que invitamos a que las sesiones sean lideradas por investigadores que desde estos campos interdisciplinares den continuidad a la investigación en el futuro. RUEDHA es un punto de encuentro de investigadoras del campo de la Historia Ambiental abierto a la pr...

The Epistemology of Narrative Knowledge Advisory editors: Erica Onnis (University of Turin), Sarah Worth (Furman University) Deadline: March 15th, 2024 Historically, human beings have been variously characterised as “social”, “political”, “rational”, or “economic” animals. Recently, another definition has presented them as “storytelling animals” belonging to the species Homo fictus, the “great ape with the storytelling mind” (Gottshall, J., The Storytelling Animal, p. 10). Humans do love to tell stories, but storytelling is not only an amusing and entertaining activity, nor a peculiar and more or less successful style of communication. Stories play fundamental epistemological roles. They help humans in organising and understanding the complex dynamics in which they live; they provide a structure to facts and ideas that would otherwise remain separated; they encode a form of knowledge that is easy to remember and enables action; they describe the world without defining it. The universal...

Studia 2023 Special Issue on Languages for Specific and Academic Purposes Deadline: 15 February 2024 Special issue information: This special issue focuses on Languages for Specific Purposes and welcomes papers taking a research, pedagogical or theoretical perspective on the topic. Language for specific purposes (LSP) is an approach to language education based on identifying the specific language features, discourse practices, and communicative skills of target academic groups, and which recognizes the subject-matter needs and expertise of learners. It sees itself as sensitive to contexts of discourse and action and seeks to develop research-based pedagogies to assist study, research or publication in English. It requires teachers to identify the diversity of disciplinary languages used in the workplace or academy and encourage students to engage analytically with target discourses and develop a critical understanding of the contexts in which they are used. This is probably the most w...

Depictions of apocalyptic (non/alternative) futures have been popular in the comic ‘mode’ (as McCloud suggests), irrespective of the approach to formalistic manifestation: manga, graphic narratives, visual novels and so on. In the 20th century, wherein humanity has been torn apart by repeated belligerences of modern warfare and violence, doomsday sagas have garnered sustained attention; whether it is MARVEL’s ‘Apocalypse’, or the Herculean ‘mecha’ robots of anime. The recent pandemic perhaps has fueled the darker side of imagination even further. However, the objective of the proposed volume is not to augment the extant discourse of the cyberpunk-ish, post-apocalyptic dystopia. Rather, it is to focus on the possible constructive purpose which comic narratives can serve during the survivalist aftermath. Allied to the context, comic and graphic texts have long been recommended for the purpose of publicity and propaganda, owing to their visual appeal. Captain America was conceivably a sym...
